Spiced Lamb Wrap (Keto)
Spiced lamb shoulder is browned with cumin, paprika, and garlic then wrapped in a low-carb cheese shell with feta, cucumber, and a garlicky yogurt-tahini sauce. Toasted pine nuts add crunch. Napa cabbage leaves substitute for flatbread, keeping the wrap genuinely low-carb while carrying classic Turkish spicing throughout.

Toss lamb shoulder with cumin, paprika, minced garlic, chopped onion, salt and pepper; let sit 5 minutes.

Melt shredded Emmental into a thin 6-inch round in a nonstick skillet over medium heat for 3 minutes until edges are lacy and golden, then slide onto a plate.
4
Sear the spiced lamb in olive oil over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes, turning once, until browned and cooked through with no pink.

Whisk yogurt, tahini and lemon juice with salt until smooth, then assemble: layer napa cabbage, lamb, feta, thinly sliced cucumber and pine nuts over the cooled cheese shell.
